To reduce homelessness and housing instability among people accessing Soonats’ooneh Health Society services by strengthening trauma-informed, culturally safe housing advocacy and support. We aim to maintain and strengthen Natsoolyis as a culturally safe space for community members who seek shelter, care, and connection. Soonats’ooneh provides access to Indigenous cultural programming, healthy meals, and land-based activities, including cultural camps and medicine gathering to the people we serve. These offerings are central to healing, resilience, and wellbeing for Indigenous people experiencing homelessness, particularly in urban settings where many are disconnected from their cultures, ancestral lands, and traditional support systems. In addition to its wellness and cultural role, Natsoolyis continues to serve as an essential emergency space for community members during periods of extreme cold and heat, offering safety, stability, and support for people living on or close to the street.

The Fire Pit Cultural Drop In Center: the Gathering Space is designed to address both immediate basic needs and long term strategies to reduce homelessness in the community. Street involved people and others who experience various levels of homelessness, poverty, life with addictions and mental health complications face a variety of barriers to accessing the key social determinants of health. These barriers do not allow for the attainment of housing security, food security, positive health outcomes, addictions support, and access to employment opportunities. The Fire Pit is founded on the experience and research that if we can assist Indigenous people to connect with their culture, it lays the foundation for people to move out of cycles of homelessness, addictions and poverty as a positive cultural identity encourages self-sufficiency and can result in improved health status.

The Fire Pit Cultural Drop-In Center Gathering Space is designed to address both immediate basic needs and long-term strategies to reduce homelessness in the community. Street involved individuals and those experiencing various levels of homelessness, poverty, substance abuse, mental health challenges face significant barriers to accessing the key social determinants of health. These barriers limit their ability to attain housing stability, food security, positive health outcomes, substance use support, and access to employment opportunities.
The Fire Pit operates on the understanding-grounded in lived experience and research – that strengthening cultural identity, particularly for Indigenous individuals, plays a key role in breaking cycles of homelessness, substance use, and poverty. By providing culturally safe programming and community connection, we support the development of positive cultural identity, self-sufficiency, and belonging. This approach contributes to improved mental health, emotional, and physical well-being, while creating meaningful pathways toward housing stability and long-term homelessness reduction.
